This is what the section pictured below looked like from the front, after hand sanding, pre- hand edge shaping, pore filling as well as staining the edges so the whole piece pops off the wall.
After 3 coats of Crystalac, it is now ready for multiple layers of Polycoat with more hand sanding between each layer.
…who needs to go to the gym when you can just sand your way to shapeliness…
Next post: finished Polycoating and inner ebony highlights.
